New S85 V10 and E60 M5 horsepower record set by Gintani supercharged Stage I E60 M5 - 646 wheel horsepower on a Dynojet

Congratulations to Gintani for setting a new S85 V10 horsepower record with their E60 M5 Stage I supercharger kit. You may recall in December of last year the completed kit was announced and a dynograph from a Dyno Dynamics was posted showing 530 wheel horsepower. BimmerBoost stated these numbers at around 6.5 psi of boost would be in the ~600 wheel horsepower range only for some fanboys running a competing kit to snicker.

Well, a new horsepower record has been set with 7.2 psi of boost on a Dynojet showing 646 wheel horsepower in STD correction. Very, very impressive results for a fairly mild Stage I kit. Additional modifications on the car are secondary cat delete and Eisenmann rear section. The headers are stock.

There is no Stage II kit being offered at the moment although it may come later.

can you list what this this car has in terms of mods...what is in a stg 1 kit versus a stg 2 and pricing?

thnx and good luck

For now, we are not offering a Stage 2 kit. We are very happy with the gains for the stage 1 at the moment. The Stage 1 kit is $15995, but we are currently having a special for in house installs for $13500. ( this special pricing is only for in house installs, if not local you will have to send in vehicle)

As for the vehicle in particular, the current mods are Eisenmann Rear section, Oem x-pipe and headers, secondary cats are removed.

646 whp... and some idiot on M5board said the dyno dynamics doesn't read that low and this would not equate to ~600 whp on a dynojet. Uh huh:

Keep in mind the Dyno Dynamics reads lower than a Dynojet so the peak figure of 530.4 wheel horsepower would likely rise to around ~600 wheel range on a dynojet.

At last there is something S65 owners can look forward to. Yes there are other kits, but why get the other kit when this kit has as much WHP as the other kit produces to the flywheel at the same price? And sticky the owner said he has stock headers on. With catless headers this would be at the 660whp range. Congrats to Gintani and the team and hope to see more products for all the range from you guys.

GPower usually doesn't provide dyno graphs, but the "Hurricane RR" package is supposed to be the most powerful (and fastest) S85 BMW, but it's also a built motor (straight off GPower's website)

The inner workings of the 10-cylinder, four-valve engine are optimised by light, precisely balanced MAHLE high-performance forged pistons with lower compression and increased mechanical strength. As the standard connecting rods and piston pins were equally not up to the considerably increased forces, here too, recourse was had to special parts.
